From Liberia-Episcopal Bishop Jonathan B. B. Hart will today lead a team of 13 officials, including five clergymen, to Banjul, The Gambia.
The intent of the visit, according to Bishop Hart, is to afford the Liberia team a chance to witness and participate in the ordination ceremony of Archbishop of the Episcopal Church of West Africa, Dr. Solomon Tilewa Johnson of The Gambia.
According to Bishop Hart, the delegation includes the Dean of Trinity Cathedral, Rev. Dr. Herman Browne, who will also serve as guest preacher for the occasion.
Bishop Hart furthered that women of the Monrovia Diocese will also be represented by their president and are expected to actively participate in the ceremony for the togetherness and uniqueness of the Episcopal Church.
Commenting on the importance of the upcoming program, the Episcopal Bishop intoned that it will strengthen and cement the relation between Episcopal churches in the sub-region, particularly those of Ghana, Sierra Leone, Cameroon, The Gambia, Guinea and Liberia.
Archbishop Johnson was recently elected to lead the West African Diocese in order to foster unity and spread the Gospel across the region in one voice.
